Consuming information is an easy way to feel busy, or to escape the current world. But it creates a gaping hole that becomes harder to fill as time goes by, and in the aftermath it leaves an unpleasant sort of emptiness. Like any addiction.

Places like UChicago teach us to ask “what’s next” for our own advancement, to do this now so we can get to that later. I learned to ask “what’s next” to be as useful as possible to as many kids as I have in front of me.

Ostensibly, Panic makes Apple software, like the award-winning Transmit, Coda, and Status Board. But how many Apple software developers team up with the creator of Katamari Damacy to print and sell their official t-shirts, or manufacture a series of deadly accurate Atari 2600 boxes for non-existent games? Cofounder Cabel Sasser shares the unique story of how Panic stayed independent at all costs, as well as some of the challenges along the way. Recorded in September 2013 at XOXO, an arts and technology festival in Portland, Oregon celebrating independent artists using the Internet to make a living doing what they love.

Making concept maps are incredibly important in learning mathematics, far better than just a long list of isolated examples. I look at a key concept in Linear Algebra - Linear Independence - and make my own little concept map about it. You can be creative when you make your own, this is just what popped into my head, but the point is to always be thinking about the connections between different ideas first and foremost. ************************************************** Now it's your turn: 1) Summarize the big idea of this video in your own words 2) Write down anything you are unsure about to think about later 3) What questions for the future do you have? Where are we going with this content? 4) Can you come up with your own sample test problem on this material? Solve it! Learning mathematics is best done by actually DOING mathematics. A video like this can only ever be a starting point. I might show you the basic ideas, definitions, formulas, and examples, but to truly master math means that you have to spend time - a lot of time! - sitting down and trying problems yourself, asking questions, and thinking about mathematics. So before you go on to the next video, pause and go THINK. *************************************************** Want more ideas for learning math effectively? ►How to Watch Math Videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ljq5y3ksk8o ►5 Tips to Make Math Practice Problems Effective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPH2lqis3D0 **************************************************** ►Want some cool math?

“Encouraging people is like the greatest feeling in the world.” And he did encourage people. One blogger recalls: “He was able to say …the things I needed to hear in a way that I actually heard them. [H]is support and encouragement changed my life. But this loss, like Dylan’s loss, feels like a smack in the face; a radical recalibration toward what brings us to this practice.

Good poetry workshops have as much to do with listening as they do with talking; good poetry teachers are those with finely tuned ears, not fine pedigrees.

Rather than fight it — or trying to surf a wave that isn’t there — he encouraged me to harness it. To breathe in the present moment and do the work that was in front of me.

The settings are stitched together with a color palette designed to read more as emotion than description. Light comes from mysterious sources, prioritizing symbolic meaning or emotional resonance over realistic interpretations. The resulting works come from a pursuit to add more context and understanding to places I purport to know, and to find reasons and ways to see them differently.

is your perfectionism even really helping?

Although I tell myself the writing in here is low stress and just for fun, three essays a week is still a whole lot, and I’ve been feeling for a little while like I’m running on fumes.

“Love someone back,” she wrote in a poem that I read the first day I realized I already loved her and always would. “You just begin.” So I began. Sometimes if I close my eyes, I can go back into that moment, finding the colors now reflected against the flesh under my lids; I can imagine her posture and her size, her eyes wide open, taking it in; and then, whether it actually happened then or not, her shoulder at my shoulder, her left hand slipped into my right hand, forever there.

In our math research we make countless choices. We chose a problem to work on, decide whether its claim is true or false, what tools to use, what earlier papers to study which might prove useful, w…

Letting go of perfection will not make you lose control of yourself. Perfection is a false control to begin with, and letting go of it is you actually re-centering yourself within your own life. You don’t sum up other people by how perfectly they do every last thing in their lives. It’s their simple presence that makes all of these things beautiful and worthwhile. Could you learn to see yourself the same way?

In her Perimeter Public Lecture webcast on May 12, 2021, mathematician Emily Riehl will examine the fascinating mathematics providing a solution to the stable marriage problem, including the sexist implications underlying it and some real-world applications. Riehl, an associate professor of mathematics at Johns Hopkins University, has published more than 20 papers and two books on higher category theory and homotopy theory.

We not only stand on the shoulders of giants but also work alongside them, destroying and collaborating, guided and guiding. And how can I act to make these days memorable, if not in my mind, then in my bones, in all that follows?

The resolution to this tension is that in general, a polynomial is not a function. You can associate a function with a polynomial by evaluating the polynomial for some value of x, but two different polynomials may correspond to the same function.

And it's also an interesting proof of concept -- it's hard to imagine that this is the end of the story. Maybe it can be worked into a simple "check your conjectures" tool that would be of great help to mathematical researchers. 6/6— Timothy Gowers (@wtgowers) May 1, 2021

They need to realize that, as in a randomized algorithm, occasional failures are the inevitable byproduct of a successful strategy. If you always win, then you’re probably doing something wrong.

“There's always been this kind of unwritten rule at Basecamp that the company basically exists for David and Jason’s enjoyment,” one employee told me. “At the end of the day, they are not interested in seeing things in their work timeline that make them uncomfortable, or distracts them from what they’re interested in. And this is the culmination of that.”

When it comes to design: forget the database, pretend it isn’t there.

I am my own space station and astronaut. Drifting, drifting. So slight the tether yet how pliable.
